The second game of the Women’s T20 Challenge will see Supernovas lock horns with Velocity on Tuesday at the MCA Stadium in Pune. Harmanpreet Kaur and Co. got off to flying start winning the season opener and will hope to continue the momentum. On the other hand, Velocity will hope to outperform their opponent and start the tournament with a win.
While it was a clinical effort from the women in blues, the middle-order collapse will keep them thinking. The top-order posted 92 runs in the first 10 overs against Trailblazers but managed only 71 in the second half. They will hope to continue the all-round performances and confirm their final spot on Tuesday.
Velocity, on the other hand, have had a good couple of days of training and will be hit on confidence. They are a batting heavy team with Shafali Varma, Laura Wolvaardt and Yashika Bhatia at the top. A lot will depend on how captain Deepti Sharma and seasoned all-rounder Sneh Rana perform against the Supernovas.
